wow - that was a monster to solve. Thanks for a great idea, and thanks to everyone for contributing.

Think I preferred the one with the borders though ;-)

Wow K! Did you actually solve this beast? I am impressed.
#3: Jota (jota) on Dec 26, 2010
I gave it all and believe it's solvable with tons of color logic.

i came here from a plam tree ;)

What is a plam tree?
#6: Jota (jota) on Oct 8, 2012
A tree that fell and sounded "plam"
#7: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Oct 8, 2012
Was there anyone around to hear it?
#8: Kristen Vognild (Kristen) on Oct 9, 2012
Possibly some startled calms

Thanks a lot, Brian. (You can take that any way you like, lol.)

Jota #3, tons of color logic, yes, solvable, not exactly. After much squinting over several days, I came up with a multiple solution. Oh well. I had put in the time and the work, so I shrugged and compared my quilt squares to the intended solution across the rows. At least one discrepancy is that the green at seven quilt squares across and three down can go in either direction. Changing it gave me a Yahoo! so I stopped comparing there.

I won't mark this as a hint because it's not much of one.
